COVER REVEAL! TROUBLE IN MIND by DONNA S. FRELICK

She couldn’t get him out of her mind—

and that’s when the trouble started.

FBI Special Agent Alana Matheson is good at her job,
despite a past that would make even a seasoned agent cringe. She has no time
for the outside help the victim’s family has brought in on a kidnapping case,
no matter how good looking he is.

But galactic tracker Gabriel Cruz is no ordinary
private investigator, and the skills he brings to the job will save both their
lives. Because Lana and Gabriel are not the only ones seeking an unusual little
boy and his mother. Their rivals in the chase are not of this world, and only
an alliance built on the bonds of love can ensure that Lana and Gabriel beat
the alien hunters to their prey.

EXCERPT:

The
teacher turned to him, a glint in his gray eyes.“I say we owe the galaxy a civilized Thrane
to make up for the butcher that is his father.What is your name, boy?”

“Gabriel
Cruz, sir.And I am human, not Thrane.”

Lana sat bolt upright in the
unmoving vehicle, her eyes seeking light, her lungs gasping for breath in the
airless void of night.The child that
Gabriel had been had stood up for the part of him that was human, but Lana saw
what the others that day had seen—part of him was not of this Earth.His father was Thrane, his brothers were
Thrane, and his memories in her mind showed her everything that meant—the cruelty,
the conquests, the centuries of war.The
bloodlines, the psi talents, the laws that held them in check.

Then, more proof, if any had been
necessary:the image she had first seen
when she’d touched his scars, of the fight on the dark side of Azreeni VI.Just one of so many fights on so many exotic
planets, the creature dying beneath him just one of so many other unimaginable,
inhuman creatures he had seen in his lifetime.Image after image, place after place, memory after memory flooded her
consciousness until she was shaking and weak.Was she crazy or was he?Aliens?Other planets?

And . . . holy mother of God, she
had . . .

She clawed open the car door and
stumbled out of the vehicle.It was all
she could do to keep her feet—and the contents of her stomach—as she gulped in
huge breaths of cold desert air.They
were pulled just off a secondary road onto a flat stretch of hardpan, and she
was alone.Stars wheeled overhead.God, it was quiet!Her heart was like thunder in her chest.

A flashlight winked a few paces
away and began to bob in her direction.“Lana?”

Oh,
Jesus!She wanted to run.She wanted to fight.She wanted to do anything but talk to Gabriel
Cruz.Who wasn’t human.
